Temecula Private Booze and Boos Tour

The Private Booze and Boos Tour is a two-hour walk through Old Town Temecula with stops at two breweries and a bar, each one with its own stories. At every stop your group settles in for a drink while the guide introduces the regulars who never left, then you walk Old Town Front Street past the famous photo spots hearing about the Palomar Inn's sleepless guests, the First National Bank heist and the Wild West characters who settled their disputes in the street and never fully settled down afterward.

Temecula companies book this for team-building and holiday parties, and friends book it for birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette weekends and relatives who need something to do after the tasting rooms close. Being private, it bends to your plans: most tours start between 5 and 8:30 pm but afternoons work, drop a stop to shorten the night, skip the drinks or have the guide meet you at dinner. Tell us about a guest of honor and the guide will write their name into a ghost story. Guests at the Palomar Hotel or Rodeway Inn Old Town can have the guide meet them at the hotel.

Pricing starts at $350 for up to 10 guests, with additional tickets from $30, and rises to $400 from mid-September through mid-November. One guide handles 15 to 20 people depending on the date; groups of 15 or more book by email and larger groups are split across guides. Everyone must be 21 or older with ID. Free parking is available at the Old Town garage on Mercedes Street and the lots on Second and Sixth Streets.
